Kwathi emva kwezinsuku ezimbili wamuka lapho, waya eGalile. Ngokuba uJesu uqobo wafakaza ngokuthi umprofethi kadunyiswa ezweni lakubo. Kuthe esefikile eGalile, abaseGalile bamamukela, sebebone konke akwenzayo eJerusalema emkhosini, ngokuba nabo babeyile emkhosini. UJesu wabuye weza eKhana laseGalile, lapho enza khona amanzi aba yiwayini. Kwakukhona induna ethile, indodana yayo yayigula eKapernawume. Lathi selizwile ukuthi uJesu usefikile eGalili evela eJudiya, laya kuye, lamncenga ukuthi ehle, asilise indodana yakhe, ngoba yayisigulela ukufa. Khona uJesu wathi kuye: “Uma ningaboni izibonakaliso nezimangaliso, anisoze nakholwa; Isikhulu sathi kuye: “Nkosi, yehla engakafi umntanami. UJesu wathi kuye: “Hamba; indodana yakho iyaphila. Indoda yakholwa yizwi uJesu alishilo kuye, yahamba. Kwathi esehla, izinceku zakhe zamhlangabeza, zamtshela ukuthi: “Indodana yakho iphilile. Wasebabuza ihola aqale ngalo ukululama. Basebesithi kuye: Izolo ngehola lesikhombisa umkhuhlane umyekele. Wasekwazi uyise ukuthi yisona leso sikhathi uJesu asho ngaso kuye ukuthi: “Indodana yakho iphilile.” Wakholwa yena nendlu yakhe yonke.
